English Instruction for use
For this reason, you should strictly follow the producer's
instructions on the packaging.
When you want to freeze fresh foods yourself, consult the
Food storage guide at the back of this user manual.
Once frozen foods have been defrosted, they should be
used up within between 12 to 24 hours.
Do not eat any food beyond its storage time, this could
lead to food poisoning.
Whenever cleaning or defrosting, remove the power
plug or switch off the main fuse.
After closing the freezer door, do not open it immediately
and do not force it open under any circumstances, The
vacuum created by the sealing of the door is dispersed
after about1-2minutes, so that the door can be
opened normally again.
To prevent condensation and ice forming, allow cooked
food to cool down to room temperature before closing
the lid of the dish and before storage.
Leave the freezer door open as briefly as possible to
avoid wasting energy and to prevent an excessive
amount of ice forming in the freezer compartment.
If the red pilot light comes on unexpectedly or stays
on for a long period of time, do not open the door on
any account and take appropriate measures
immediately (see "What to do when....." at the back
of the user manual).
Never use a screwdriver or any other sharp-edged
metal tool to remove the layers of ice. The inside walls
are very delicate and can be easily damaged by sharp
edges. Use only plastic or wooden scrapers with no
sharp edges.
Precautions and advice
9 Cleaning and maintenance
As a firm rule, unplug the power plug or switch off
at the mains.
For the upkeep of the external appearance of your fridge
/ freezer, clean the outside every now and again.
Clean the door seal with
warm water now and again
but do not use any cleaning
products.
Clean your appliance regularly.
The various parts inside the fridge / freezer are generally
not suitable for dishwashers. These should be washed
by hand with warm water and a little washing-up liquid.
Never use
a cleaning agent neat and on no account
use any abrasive or acid, i.e. chemical cleaning
products. A general all purpose pH neutral cleaning
agent is recommended.
The rating plate inside or outside your appliance should
not be damaged and should never be removed - this
is essential for servicing. Make sure, when
cleaning,
that no water runs onto any electrical parts inside the
appliance.
If there is a heat exchanger - called condenser- on
the back of your fridge / freezer, this should be cleaned
regularly. Dust and dirt impede the release of heat
from the inside and considerably increase energy
consumption. For best results, use a soft brush or a
duster to remove dust from the condenser.
Switching off the appliance
If your appliance is going to be switched off for longer
periods (such as during holidays), it should be left open
to prevent odours from buiding up inside.
Ice and frost layers which build up to a certain thickness
on the inside walls, act as insulation and prevent the
dispersion of the coldness. These must be removed from
time to time. To remove the layers of ice from the inside
walls, use a plastic or wood scraper with no sharp edges.
When doing this, remove the drawers and lay a cloth on
the bottom of the appliance to catch the ice as it is scraped
off so that it can be easliy removed.
The method least likely to damage your appliance when
removing the layers of ice is to defrost it.
Defrosting
In normal circumstances (opening the freezer 4 - 5 times
a day) the freezer compartment should be defrosted once
or twice a year (more often in other circumstances).
The fridge compartment is defrosted automatically.
